Strong | The Back For You Series | A Harry Styles Fan Fiction

Monkey Bars

I fall onto the bed and let my tears soak into the comforter. As soon as I think I have girl, she goes and does this. I don't know how to fix this. I still want her to be mine. I look down at the ring on my pinky. I didn't want her to go find someone else. But I didn't want to talk to her right now. Soon enough, my phone vibrates and I pick it up. "Harry..." Louis says on the other end. "I'm sorry." I just nod my head. If I say anything I know I'll cry. "I told you that you shouldn't have gotten the tattoo." He was right. I don't want to admit it. "Har, you can come to my place if you'd like. Do you know where she's gonna go?" 

"No.. I'll be over in a bit." I hang up and grab a bag from the closet, shoving all the clothes all need. The worst part, we're going on tour in fourteen days. If I don't fix things with Madi know, I may never fix it again. Maybe everyone was right. Maybe I was just infacuated with her. I really thought she was perfect. I didn't think she would do something like this. Then again, I didn't think Zayn would let this happen. I thought he'd know better. Once I zip up the bag, I slowly make my way down the stairs. Madi laid face down in the couch. I resisted the urge to go up and kiss her again. I was mad. I didn't want to be mad but I was. I wanted it to be normal again. 

I walk through Louis' door as Eleanor walks out. He just looks at me with look of pity. "Come here..."He hugs me and I start to cry. "Wow, you're a mess..." He walks me into the living room. Once I sit, he throws a box of tissues at me. "Keep the whole box..." He sits next to me. "Do you wanna talk it out? What are we gonna do at reheasal tomorrow...?" I just shrug. 

"Louis...what did I do wrong...?" I look up and wipe my face. 

"You do not blame yourself for this okay Har? None of this is your fault. If anyones to blame it's Madi and Zayns. Madi should have known that you love her more than anything in the world. Zayn should have known not to mess with that. I don't know what got into him. He's never been like this before." He stands up and walks to the kitchen. "Want a drink?" I nod and he sets a glass bottle in my hand. "I just think that maybe, you're just not suppose to be together." I listen to Louis as he tries his hardest to make me feel better. 

"We were suppose to be together Louis. I love her. She's perfect." I shake my head. "There's no one like her." 

"So you want to be with a cheating skank?" He raises his eyebrow. 

"Louis..." I frown. 

"Sorry, too far?" I nod. "But really, you don't know what they did. Did they just kiss? Make babies? We may never know..." 

"Louis! She wouldn't...." I lay back on the couch. 

"But what if she did....?" 

"Well that's unfortunate." I close my eyes. "Where was Eleanor off to?" I ask. 

"Should I say it?" Louis also lays back, sipping his drink. I just nod. "She was going to comfort Madi..." 

"Whose side are you on!?" I sit up. 

"I'm defiantly on yours...I promise. But Eleanor is neutral... Watch, she'll probably come home and set cookies in front of you and hug you. And what is she doing right now, watching The Notebook and eating ice cream with Madison. You'll get over her lad." 

"I wouldn't be so sure..." 

A hours later the door clicks shut and Eleanor walks in. "Hey lou." She kisses him and sets cookies in front of me. "I'm sorry Har." Louis gives me a told you so look. "I think you boys should both get some rest. You have rehersal early in the morning." She rubs both of our heads. 

"Okay mom..." I smile up at her. 

"Come on Lou..." she pulls him up. We're both very tired, it was past eleven. Soon enough I was dozing off on the couch, not to wake up till Louis would come down in the morning. 

"Wake up sunshine...." He taps my cheeks and I sit up. 

"What time is it?!" The sun poured through the window. 

"Har..It's okay, we have time." I relaxed a little bit. "You go get dressed." I smiled a bit and walked into the bathroom. "That's what your wearing?" I come out in sweats and an old tee shirt. 

"Too lazy?" I ask. 

"No no...It's fine..." He looks away and I follow him to the car. "Are you ready? I mean, Zayn's going to be there. What are you gonna do? What are you gonna say to him?' 

"I don't know. Maybe I won't even talk to him." I say and roll my eyes. 

"Harry you can't ignore him forever. We're going to be riding on the same tour bus for eight months. You're going to have to confront him eventually." I sigh deeply and look away from him. "Harold...." He sighs in frustration. "I'm pretty sure he knows he messed up. Did you see his tweets...?" 

"Nope. Not even intrested." I start to get a little annoyed now. I don't wanna talk about it. I know I have to go and talk to him. I'll be the small person and just give him the silent treatment. He's an ass. My fiances an idiot. I made a stupid mistake. 

"Just take a look at it Harry." I bite my lip and pull out my phone. 

'@zaynmalik- I'd like to publicly apologize to Everyone. The fans, Harry, Madi and everyone around me.' 

"I don't buy it." I look at Lou. 

"That's your choice." I look down at the unfollow button. I'm tempted. I don't want to start anything more. The fans would freak. Of course they would notice if I unfollow Zayn. They're already blowing up my mentions about the scandle. I do feel bad for Madi. Most of the mean tweets were blown towards her. But, she did it. It was her choice. We pull into the parking lot just as Niall does. 

"Harry! Louis!" He comes up and smiles. He's always smiley. "The rest are inside. I just gotta grab the guitars." I nod at him and make my way in. As soon as I get there, eyes are plastered on me. This whole thing that blew up yesterday really draws attention. Everyone looked at me just a tad bit different. Like I'm a victim. Which I am, but I don't like it. Paul comes up to me and hands me the finalized song list. Zayn comes out of the bathroom as I walk towards that hall. 

"Hey Look Har-" He goes to talk and I stop walking. 

"Don't try." I clench my teeth a little. I didn't want to yell at him. 

"Harry I-" 

"Just shut up I don't want to hear your shit." I turn away from him and walk back towards the other end of the building. 

"I just want-" I do kinda feel bad about what I'm about to do but you know, I have to get my anger out some where. 

"Zayn! Shut up! You kissed my fiance! You know I was going to ask her to marry me! You drew this damn tattoo! You ass! I mean I thought we were best friends! I didn't know you'd do something this  stupid! You got her smoking didn't you!" I yell. I clench my fists and my knuckles turn color. "You're such an idiot." My hand makes contact with his lip. 

"Harry I'm sorry!" He yells as I push him to the floor. 

"I don't give a shit! You should've kept your damn hands off of her!" Strong arms pull me up. I stand in pauls grip as I try to get away. 

"Harry control yourself." He says and Zayn gets up. "Boys, I know this is a personal issue, but this is work. You can deal with your personal life outside of here. Harry, I want to you accept Zayn's apologies. He knows he dd something wrong." I felt like a little kid at recess getting in trouble for pushing the stupid kid off the monkey bars. I know I'm getting punished for punching him but he kissed Madi! 

"Fine. Whatever." Paul lets me go and I walk away. "What was that Louis...What did I do that for. I don't get this mad. Like ever. I love her so much." I sit on the step. Zayn stands over there Icing his lip. "I don't think this is gonna work. This whole tour thing. Not with both Zayn and I."
